Have you ever bought mirrors?

Score: 40.0

Grammar

Incorrect use of pronouns

× No, I don't like to look at them myself in the mirror.

No, I don't like to look at myself in the mirror.

The pronoun 'them' is incorrect here because the speaker is referring to themselves. The correct reflexive pronoun is 'myself'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Also, every morning I always stare at mirror for two or three years.

Also, every morning I always stare at the mirror for two or three minutes.

The phrase 'stare at mirror' is missing the definite article 'the' before 'mirror'. Also, 'two or three years' is illogical in this context; it should be 'two or three minutes' to indicate duration of staring each morning.

Past tense issue

× Yes, three years ago I want to check my batting formula at baseball.

Yes, three years ago I wanted to check my batting form in baseball.

The verb 'want' should be in the past tense 'wanted' to match the past time reference 'three years ago'. Also, 'batting formula' is likely a mistake; 'batting form' is more appropriate in baseball context.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Also, I bought a very big mirror, which is the same height as umm, me.

Also, I bought a very big mirror, which is the same height as me.

The sentence is correct in preposition usage here; no correction needed.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× It's uh, so big that my wife, I don't like to watch it, so I will throw it away.

It's uh, so big that my wife doesn't like to look at it, so I will throw it away.

The sentence has a pronoun and verb agreement issue. 'My wife, I don't like' is incorrect. It should be 'my wife doesn't like to look at it' to correctly express that the wife dislikes the mirror.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× No, I don't take a mirror in my daily life.

No, I don't carry a mirror in my daily life.

The verb 'take' is not appropriate here; 'carry' is better to express bringing something with you regularly.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× If I can use the inside camera, I can look at myself, especially the face.

If I can use the front camera, I can look at myself, especially my face.

'Inside camera' is not a common term; 'front camera' is the correct term for the camera used to look at oneself. Also, 'the face' should be 'my face' to specify whose face.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× It's a subordinate of the mirror.

It's a substitute for the mirror.

The word 'subordinate' is incorrect here; the intended meaning is 'substitute', meaning it replaces the mirror.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Yes, a mirror is very efficient for decorating inside my house because by using a very big mirror inside the house, you can feel that room is much wider than usual and it's very effective way to use mirrors.

Yes, a mirror is very effective for decorating inside my house because by using a very big mirror inside the house, you can feel that the room is much wider than usual and it's a very effective way to use mirrors.

The word 'efficient' is not appropriate here; 'effective' is better to describe the usefulness of mirrors in decoration. Also, 'that room' should be 'the room' to specify the particular room. 'It's very effective way' needs the article 'a' before 'very effective way'.
